  • NETGEAR Builds Mobile Learning Environment for the University of Canberra
    NETGEAR builds mobile learning environment for the University of Canberra About the University of Canberra The University of Canberra has 1,200 staff and 10,000 students, with ninety countries represented by its student body. The University offers courses covering more than 30 professions, and provides both undergraduate and postgraduate education. The Challenge – The need to implement a secure, flexible and low-cost network The challenge for the University of Canberra was to implement an IT framework which supported the seamless interaction of wired and wireless solutions, improved bandwidth capabilities and provided sufficient levels of secure wireless coverage across the campus. The IT infrastructure had to support multicast and multi-media traffic, such as broadcasting audio and video across the data network, and flexible mobile connectivity to cater for the high number of students with their own laptops, PDAs and other mobile devices. The solution also had to meet tight budgetary constraints, offer low cost of ownership and provide simplicity in management and deployment. The Solution Design – Delivering easy-to-use, high performance wired and wireless solutions Due to the networking providerʼs ability to exceed the identified criteria, the University of Canberra selected NETGEAR, along with their preferred network integration reseller ASI Solutions, as its partner to plan and implement the required upgrades. The Wired Solution The University of Canberra deployed approximately 200 switches, containing a mix of Fast Ethernet and Gigabit managed switches at the network edge. The switches incorporated two easy-to-follow management interface options and delivered high-performance data transfer. Also deployed were a number of FSM7328S stackable Layer 3 switches on the network edge.
